Beginners Alpe d'Huez
It is especially easy to learn to ski in Alpe d'Huez. Numerous base lifts connect easy slopes for the very first attempts on skis. Some of them are free. There are also ski tranquille zones (slow ski zones) for slower skiers on gently sloping runs. For those that have already made some progress, the beginner ski pass 1ère Glisse is recommended. Especially surrounding the large village of Alpe d'Huez, many easy slopes are easily accessible. With the exception of Vaujany, all of the village have blue runs near the base.
